I Can Upgrade My Talent In Everything

"I noticed that we always get distracted... It as was as if something was subtly influencing us. Just like now." Fein shared his thoughts with his teammates with a serious expression.

Michael stared at the two incredulously. "It's probably a coincidence. We are the shadow realm, free of outside interference. This is literally another dimension separate from reality."

"You're right... We are overthinking things." Gregory said.

'I hope that's the case...' Fein thought in his head.

"Well, I'm gonna hop in." Michael jumped on the back of Fein steadily, and Gregory also followed.

Gregory felt the soft sensation that Fein's feathers gave, which made him relax subconsciously. "Well, this is quite comfortable."

"I didn't expect that we would ever experience this kind of thing... This feels surreal for me." Michael couldn't help but sigh with emotion and look at the sky full of shadows.

"Hang in there guys..." As he said this, Fein channeled a large amount of degu energy in both pairs of his wings.

Michael and Gregory quickly enveloped their full body with their degu energy for protection. In the face of powerful attacks, this thin layer of degu energy was obviously useless for protection. But if it was for friction or wind, it could be an excellent substitute.

Yes, there in the shadow realm, oxygen, and other gases also exist. It's really just like a copy of reality. Except, it can't mirror the people, only non-living things. People would only appear if a person has access to the shadow realm like Michael.

BOOM!



Fein's body disappeared. There are no afterimages or anything. Because even the afterimages can't follow his speed anymore.

'Fuck, I almost flew out!' Michael tightened his grip on his friend's feather. He has to say that the feather was tougher than any mineral, but they were also as soft as real feathers at the same time.

In Gregory's eyes, the surroundings faded and fused into one color. He felt dizzy just by it. He couldn't explain the feeling, but it was the fastest travel that he had ever experienced in his life!

Fein, on the other hand, couldn't enjoy the usual soft and gentle sensation of wind on his feathery face anymore. After all, with the speed he was going, the speed was sharper than even the well-crafted knives. Although he has the body of an S rank, he could still feel itchy and annoyed by it. He didn't need to worry that he would be wounded or anything. The prickling feeling on his beak just made him uncomfortable.

Just like that, they appeared nine kilometers away from their previous place, which was approximately eighteen kilometers in the real world.

Fein decelerated in an instant, which resulted in a wind explosion. Wind blades scatted everywhere. Fortunately, the surroundings were all made of shadows, so there was no destruction. It was as if a rock was thrown into the sea. It couldn't cause any ripples.

Michael and Gregory looked pale and sweaty after the whole experience. Both of them jumped down and started to vomit all the contents of their stomach.

BLURRGGG!

'Ewww... I didn't expect degu user could still experience motion-sickness.'

Fein chuckled, looking at the two with a happy smile. He really finds it pleasant when he could get them to see them suffer a little like this. 'Damn, instead of fifty percent, I should have used one hundred percent of my speed... I wonder what would happen to them at that time. They might even spit their internal organs.'

This silly thought appeared in his head... Fein walked behind them and patted their backs.

After a while, the two stopped vomiting. Fein tried to hold back his laugh as he saw their funny faces. Michael became even paler, and his eyes appeared a little bloodshot.

Gregory, on the other hand, still looks okay, except that he looks a little weaker. "Motherf*cker!! I don't want to experience that again!"

"That was too uncomfortable. You should have slowed down a little. The contents of my stomach literally went upside down." Michael inhaled and exhaled slowly five times before his complexion started to return to normal. "I also don't want to ride on his back again."

"Are you okay guys?" Fein blinked innocently... " The two of you were ungrateful. I'm already being considerate here. Don't you know that I only use fifty percent of my speed? Aren't you guys reacting way over the top??"

"What!? That's only half of your maximum speed???" A question mark appeared on Michael's face and he stood dumbfounded at his position.

'That is only fifty percent speed?' A feeling of dread suddenly grew in Gregory's heart and he kept reminding himself that he should never ride Fein's bird form again. Never in his life again...

"Of course, you're an S rank. A mere lower ranker like us would get killed with the slight exertion of your powers."

"Okay, my bad. Next time, I would only use fifteen percent of my speed." Fein shrugged in surrender. But when he saw Michael looking at them in distrust, the corners of his mouth twitched. "Why are you looking at me like that? I swear I'm not trolling this time. Do you think this handsome can spout lies?"

Michael just nodded without even thinking about it. "Your face lacks credibility."

"Ouch..." Fein exaggeratedly gripped his heart as if he was experiencing unprecedented pain.

Seeing this, a black line appeared on Gregory's head. "Should I smack them on their heads? Well, forget it."

It might be possible to hurt Michael a little with his smack, but it would be ineffective against Fein, even if he did it with all of his strength and infused degu one hundred percent of his degu energy.

"Where's the trust between brothers go?" A look of loneliness and a sorrowful expression appeared on Fein's face.

"Fuck!" Gregory almost spat when he saw Fein's realistic acting. If he didn't know what was happening, he would have believed him.

Michael lifted his right foot and did a roundhouse kick toward Fein's shoulder, but Fein dodge it instinctively. His previous expression was now replaced with a grin. "Hey, I'm just joking. No need to get physical."

"Be serious... You're playing around again." Michael and Gregory look at each other helplessly.
